Reborn as a fake daughter, Master Jiu’s doting on his wife amazes the whole city
Chapter 271 Shouldn’t I call you sister-in-law?
Yuan Yuan paced back and forth in her room. Even if she bit her nails, she could not suppress the raised corners of her mouth.
I’m really looking forward to it. I’m really looking forward to it.
From time to time, she would stare at her cell phone on the bed, but the screen was always blank.
I don't know where that woman is. Is she going to Huo Yanzhou soon?
dong dong dong.
The knock on the door outside interrupted Yuan Yuan's thoughts. She immediately sat on the sofa chair and said, "Come in."
The housekeeper opened the door and came in. Yuan Yuan restrained herself slightly, "It seems it's not time to take medicine yet."
The housekeeper nodded and said bluntly: "Young master Ninth called me just now and asked me to ask Miss Yuan what you said to Miss Yuan just now."
The expression on Yuan Yuan's face became slightly stiff. She hesitated for a moment, thinking that she had heard wrongly, and asked, "Did Yan Zhou call to ask?"
"Yes."
"How could he...did his sister-in-law call him?"
When the housekeeper heard Miss Yuan calling the young mistress this way, she frowned: "Miss Yuan, did you call the young mistress that way just now?"
Yuan Yuan looked innocent: "Am I wrong to call you this?"
The housekeeper looked solemn: "Miss Yuan, you have nothing to do with the young master. If I want to call you, I should also call the young master the young master."
"I don't know...but my name is Yanzhou, why can't I call my sister-in-law like this?"
"Miss Yuan, what else did you say to the young mistress?" the housekeeper asked, skipping the topic.
"Nothing said."
"Miss Yuan, you'd better explain to me verbatim. If the young master comes to ask you in person, it will have a different meaning." What the housekeeper said was not a lie. It can be seen from the voice of the young master's phone call just now. Prove it all.
Similarly, Yuan Yuan knew that the housekeeper was not joking, so she simply explained what she had said.

Xiang Xuan did not go to the group to find Huo Yanzhou, but went to meet the old president alone.
The incident happened in the morning, and the old president hastily ended the banquet afterwards.
When the old president saw Xiang Xuan coming, he asked Hao Tianxin to prepare tea.
As soon as the door was closed, the old man said: "Why didn't you want to reveal your identity as Lan Xi at that time?"
Xiang Xuan said: "There is a lot of trouble." After taking a sip of tea, she looked calm and indifferent.
The old president's eyebrows curved, knowing her state of mind, "It's better not to be known, lest those noisy voices will stop. I think the board of directors of the Conservatory of Music will bore you to death."
Xiang Xuan rubbed the edge of the tea cup and returned to the topic: "Liu Suqing's gossip is not groundless. It has already started to spread, both overt and covert. You need to be more careful."
"Before, I thought that there were only a small number of people engaged in music and art. Those wealthy businessmen who were interested just wanted to make money and gain popularity. Who would have thought that there are still many people who are coveting it." The old president said heavily. He said, "I founded Wutonghui because I just wanted children who really understand music to have a platform to express themselves. But now it has become a place where they can cleanse themselves of their criminal behavior."
"If you hadn't told me, I might have been kept in the dark."
Xiang Xuan's cold and beautiful eyes flickered twice, "Some people are attracting you to come back, and some people are trying to make things difficult for you. This can only mean that these two groups of people are working against each other. Old president, do you have any suitable candidates?"
The old president thought for a moment and shook his head, "I have never offended anyone in my life."
"Even if you don't take the initiative to offend anyone, there will still be flies taking the initiative to look at you. Maybe you should think about those people who competed with Liu Suqing for the position of president."
Being reminded by Xiang Xuan, the old president's eyes lit up, "There really is such a person."
Xiang Xuan said nothing.
The old president tried hard to recall this person and said eloquently: "His name was Peng Yuanxiao, but he disappeared after I gave the position of president to Liu Suqing a year ago. But he said one last thing to me. If you say that I gave my seat to Liu Suqing, I will regret it sooner or later."
At this point, his hands couldn't help but tremble, "Then half a month passed and my grandson disappeared. Could it be..."
Seeing that the old president was getting excited, Xiang Xuan called him: "President."
The old president stared at her eyes.
Within a few seconds, he calmed down and blinked again, as if he had forgotten why he was so excited just now.
Xiang Xuan changed the subject: "I bailed Liu Suqing out because I just wanted to catch the big fish behind her. I came here and wanted to tell you clearly about this. You can't have anyone around you during this time."
"Don't worry about that." The old president nodded.
After leaving the office, Xiang Xuan faced Hao Tianxin face to face. She nodded slightly, and Hao Tianxin mustered up the courage to call her out: "Can I call you by your name?"
"can."
Hao Tianxin pursed his lips, a little embarrassed, and took out the things in his pocket, "Xiang Xuan, can you help me give this to Kamo?"
Xiang Xuan lowered his eyes and saw that it was a unique new Chinese embroidered sachet.
"please."
"...Okay." Xiang Xuan took it and put it in his pocket.
"Be careful on the road."
Hao Tianxin turned around and entered the office.
----
Xiang Xuan handed the embroidery sachet to Fu Ya and asked her to send it to Teacher Kamo.
Looking at the time, she bought Rongji's cakes and returned to the Huo family first, and delivered them to the head of the Huo family. The old man was in a good mood and asked her to play Go.
The head of the Huo family would be blocked by Xiang Xuan every time, unable to take a step forward, racking his brains to think.
Xiang Xuan put down the Baizi in his hand and said, "Grandpa, please think about it slowly. I'm going back first."
"Hey, hey, if you wait a little longer, I will definitely be able to figure it out, I will definitely be able to figure it out."
Xiang Xuan stood in front of him and said firmly: "Don't worry, you won't be able to think of anything tonight."
Patriarch Huo: "..."
Butler Zhao behind him almost laughed out loud.
Xiang Xuan left the study and was looking at her cell phone. Mother He walked quickly to her, without the arrogance of the past, but respectfully addressed her: "Ninth Young Mistress, our wife would like to invite you to sit upstairs."
Xiang Xuan narrowed his eyes: "What's the matter?"
Mother He shook her head in embarrassment: "Madam didn't say what it was, I just hope that you, Ninth Young Madam, can come up. Ninth Young Madam, don't worry, our madam will never have any wrong thoughts about you."
This was said with particular certainty.
"Huo Yanzhou's father isn't here?"
"Yes, not here."
"lead the way."
Xiang Xuan muted her cell phone and followed He's mother upstairs.
While still walking in the corridor, she heard a baby crying.
There was even an urgent voice from Mrs. Li: "How did you coax them? How could two babies cry at the same time?"
The two-month-old sister-in-law looked nervous and hugged the child and kept coaxing her.
"Okay, okay, hurry up and hug them in and coax them. Don't let them cry for too long, or they won't be able to breathe."
The confinement sisters nodded and went in with the two children in their arms.
The next second, Mrs. Li saw Xiang Xuan coming, and a smile appeared on her face: "Xiang Xuan, you are here, come in and sit down."
